An Interactive and Expansible Virtual Laboratory Environment for Hardware Chips Application Experiment

摘要

With the swift development of hardware simulation technology, virtual laboratory environment has appealed more and more attention of educators. In this paper, we develop an interactive virtual laboratory environment for hardware chips application experiment. It provides the students with real expression, convenient operation and powerful simulation capability. Furthermore, interactivity and expansibility make this system distinctive under different circumstances. Till now, our virtual laboratory environment has been implemented and successfully applied in a Computer Interface Technology course in Shanghai University and has gained positive appraisal from teachers and students.
